I’m not a huge fan of Linkedin or resumes, so here we are — thanks for dropping by :D
I’m very interested the problem called AI alignment because I think it’s super important to figure out how to reliably control exceedingly advanced AI systems (we’re trying to build systems vastly smarter than us as fast as we can, what could go wrong?). I spend most of my free time doing research and increasingly thinking about scalable, maybe commercial solutions in AI safety. Aside from the above, I like to widen my training distribution (aka trying new things) and ‘build a world model’ by learning about different fields and problems (’grokking’ planes of legibility).
Ex-varsity table tennis and golf, always down to go hit some balls at the range!
This website is always a work in progress 😉
